the difference was that with Duncan, you can see that around 8 seconds in that he's about to shoot.
with D12 the guy isnt even beginning his shooting motion, or even bringing the ball up to get ready, he's just starring at the ground.....
fact is, he should just probably chuck it as soon as he gets it, that may actually help him hit his free throws better.

howard acted like a spoiled brat in this. you've been repeatedly warned by the league man, smarten up. i'd hate to see how games would slow down if everyone wanted to take as much time as the felt like to make a ft. and to complain that it would be different if he was a good shooter? ffs, dwight. man child is right.

it actually does effect the game flow. i hate it when players take FOREVER to even gather the ball and take the free throw. ESPECIALLY when they miss it. seriously slows down the pace of the game. sometimes it's not a bad thing where both teams are out of control they need a breather
the only time they should be taking this long is during crunch time

Karl Malone took forever, and everyone knew he could have been called. But he was also Karl Malone, and at least he made good use of the time. Waiting ten or twenty seconds for another miss is just unnecessary.

I think it would be a good idea for the ACC to start counting to 10 for people who take a long time at the line. This might cause them to put up their shot quickly, and throwing them off. From personal basketball experience, if you rush a free throw, you're likely to leave it short.

I think the ACC should try tricking the opposition more. I remember a few weeks ago, the crowd were chanting "3...2...1" when the shot clock was actually at 8 or 9.
